Agreed, and what a waste of time over an issue that 80% of their community doesn't want changed. So much for the people's voices counting when it comes to the geographic court's decision.

Board, not court. My dad, while not having anything direct to do with the NZGB, does have contacts within it. I haven't asked his opinion of it, but hopefully he thinks the change is ****ing stupid.

I don't care that you exist, just don't talk to me. You wouldn't like it if I spoke to you, would you?

Yeah me too. Some of these Kiwi folk are a little too touchy to be honest.

If they could manage to add a bit of feely we could all be friends.

****s (atheists skip this post)

Met this guy I'm somehow related to at the local Wal-Mart. First time I've seen him in over two years too, first thing he asks, in a sarcastic tone, why I don't show up at the Friday prayers. As much as I wanted to rave and rant at him, I just played nice and walked away.

I really appreciate you not asking me about my father's health who's been in and out of the hospital over the last few years, or about my mother who lost her job recently, but going straight for looking down at me because despite your family's cable-stealing-nonzabiha-meat-eating-alcohol-drinking-drug-dealing habits you're somehow better than me because you show up for Friday prayers. Neither one of us is perfect but you apparently feel you have the right to talk down at me. I'm done skipping Friday prayers because of these ****s. I'm going to find another mosque to go to even it is a half-hour drive, as to me its more about devotion than 1upping each other.

My cousin is really religious, almost fundamentalist type which is why I don't really get along with him, but might have to swallow my pride and ask him about another mosque around here.

I read it, I'm sorry. I had to when the first line instructed me not to.

The rest of you can go to hell, or listen to non stop lectures by George Murphy, whichever's worse.
